Sydney Sixers Women are favorites to win
Sydney Thunder Women will take on Sydney Sixers Women at the North Sydney Oval, Sydney, in Match 6 of the WBBL. This match gets underway at 17:25 local time on Sunday 22nd October, 2023.
This is an excellent batting pitch in North Sydney but we can expect more spin to come from the surface as the game progresses on Sunday evening.

Last year produced a season to forget for Sydney Thunder Women who picked up only five points and one victory across the entire campaign. Rachael Haynes has been replaced as skipper of the side by England’s Heather Knight who will be relishing the challenge of turning the fortunes around, starting with this derby match.
With the amount of batting talent in the Sydney Thunder Women’s squad, most pundits believe they will finish way above their position from last year. In this game we expect Phoebe Litchfield, Marizanne Kapp, Heather Knight and Chamari Athapaththu to be the main run scorers.
Marizanne Kapp is a world class performer with both bat and ball and the right-arm medium pacer can pick up wickets at any time in the innings. Left-arm spinner Samantha Bates could be a real threat on this pitch with Lauren Bell a regular wicket taker in English domestic cricket.
Sydney Thunder Women’s last win came on 22 October last year during a very poor season.

It is always exciting when you play in the opening game of a WBBL season but a close match went the way of the opposition as Sydney Sixers Women went down by 2 runs against Melbourne Stars Women here at the North Sydney Oval. As a result, Ashleigh Gardner’s side should be familiar with the conditions ahead of this game.
Skipper Ashleigh Gardner hit 72 runs at a strike-rate of 163.63 in Sydney Sixers Women’s total of 163-9 in Match 1 but she and the team management will be expecting the opening pair of Suzie Bates and Alyssa Healy to contribute more than the 16 runs on Thursday in this fixture.
Kate Peterson was the only one of a six woman bowling attack that went wicketless against Melbourne Stars Women and the bowlers will look to be more economical in this game. Ashleigh Gardner was the only one of the attack to keep her run-rate down to under 6.
Sydney Sixers Women Women can play much better than we saw in their tight opening game defeat.

Sydney Sixers Women beat Sydney Thunder Women in both matches last season but they will know they are up against a different group of players this year who we expect to give them a much tougher fixture. There are some top internationals in both teams but Sydney Sixers Women have more players with consistent WBBL records. As a result, we are backing Sydney Sixers Women to win.
